FOREIGN POTATO CROP SHORT
Chicago, For the First Time During
the Present Campaign, It Above
the Dollar Mark.
Chicago, Aug. 80. Today, for the
first time since the present bull cam
paign in wheat was started, the price
of September wheat sold above the dol
lar mark in Chicago. Ten minutes af-
-ter the opening, $1.03 was offered,
an advance over yesterday's closing
prioe of 6 oents. Even at that tempt
ing figure, the b,ull clique refused to let
.go of their holdings. Enough wheat
came on the market to break the prioe
to 98 7-8 oents by the time the closing
bell sounded, but the brokers who were
; engineering the deal stoutly denied
. that it came from them. .
There was, perhaps, a shade of ma
liciousness in the way they forced the
shorts to bid up. It was ourrently re-
,. ported on Monday, when prices broke
so sharply, that the pool was forced to
put up $400,000 in margins. They
' certainly had their revenge today. The
rise was plainly due to the clique,
which is now swelled, by rumor, to in
clude Joseph Lei'ter, George R. Frenoh,
Allen, Grier & Co., and James Keene,
of Wall street. The only leader,
George French, who appeared distinct
ly above the surface, makes no secret
'that he has a line of 5,000,000 bushels
of September wheat. There was not
much more than 1,100,000 bushels of
contract wheat in Chicago, with hardly
anything coming, and an immense
Bhort line of cash wheat sold for ex
port. This iB the situation as it now
playg into the hands of the bull com
bine. '
' The sudden rise of September wheat
was not reflected in any other large
market in the country, with the excep
tion of Minneapolis, where September
bounded from 92 cents to f 1. St.
Louis advanced 2 cents at one time,
but relapsed to the opening prices for
Deoember.
Although statistics were not given
' much attention, one item of foreign
news had a distinct influence. The
foreign potato crop shortage is estimat
: ed at the total of 1,000,000,000 bush
els, wh'.ch was expected to increase the
demaria for Ainencan wheat. Its influ
ence waB especially felt in December
wheat, which is not supposed to be un
der the thumb of any clique. Corn
and provisions !'were both affected by
the excitement in wheat. In corn, the
trading was enomrous, and although an
advanoe of 1 to cents was recorded,
the feeding was very strong at the close.
The closing for-rprovisiona -was 15 to
20 cents higher. ' '
NEWS FROM THE ISLANDS.
Hawaii Has Not Tet Received Japan's
Answer.
San Francisco, Aug. 80. The
steamer Mariposa arrived this morning
from Sydney, via Honolulu, with the
following Hawaiian advices:
The Hawaiian government has not
yet received any answer from ' Japan
regarding the offer to refer the immi
gration trouble to arbitration. . There
is no change in the situation here.
The China registry case was. finally
submitted to Judge Perry for a decision
August 19, and an early decision is
confidently expected, as the matter will
in all probability be appealed to the
supreme court. It is predicted, that
the question of the big steamer's regis
try will be settled before she reaohes
here agsin in October. The principal
point upon which, the Hawaiian govern
iment rules is the question of McFar
lane's oitizenship, he having been
born on the island of .British parents.
The American ship Commodore left
Honolulu for New York August 19,

To Conciliate With Us.
London, Aug. 80. The Standard's
correspondent at' San Sebastian says:
I learn that Spain has intimated her
willingness to make considerable re
duction in the contemplated "West In
dian tariffs, in order to develop the
trade of Cuba with the United States.
She was willing to negotiate a reciproc
ity treaty when the Dingley tariff came
into force, but the United States re
ceived advances coldly, because " it
wanted the Cuban question settled first.
Indeed, Spain is now aware that
American diplomacy will soon raise
other and more important questions be
fore commercial questions are likely to
be mooted." .

Havana, Aug. 30; There are 4,000

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Downing, Hopkins & Company's Review
of Trade.
An inquiry into European crop con
ditions conducled by the Orange Judd
syndicate of agricultural papers, includ
ing the American Agriculturist, of New
York, the Orange-Judd Farmer, of Chi
cago, and the New England Homestead,
of Springfield, Mass., indicates that the
food crop situation abroad is very grave.
, Estimates of Europe's (including
England) need of wheat imports range
all theway from 800,000,000 to 400,
000,000 bushels. Europe's wheat crop
for 1895, 1894 and 1893 averaged 1,
500,000,000 bushels. In 1891 the fam
ine year, it was only 1,200,000. The
impression is gaining ground that Eu
rope's wheat this year is even less than
in 1891. . But this is not the worst of
it. Europe usually prod uoes as much
rye as she does wheat. It is the bread
grain of the masses. The rye crop of
the principal European countries has
averaged above 1,800,000,000 annually
for 1896, 1895, 1894 and 1898. This
season the rye crop of these countries
cannot much exceed 875,000,000 bush
els. Quite as bad is the potato pros
pect. Only about 1,850,000,000 bush
els of potatoes will 'be harvested in
these countries this year. Without re
gard to the United Kingdom or other
European countries, there is a shortage
of soma million bushels of potatoes.
The European shortage, compared with
the average, follows:
Wheat, bushels . 300,000,000
Rye, bushels 835,000,000
Potatoes, bushels 1,000,000,000
Total............. 1,635,000,000
'The Hungarian department of agri
culture says: "The favored oountries
are the United States and Canada.
The latter will soon be one of the most
important of the exporting oountries, its
excess over last year's production being
70,000,000 bushels of wheat, and 20,
000,000 of corn. Its output of all sorts,
of grain was 270,000,000 bushel The
yield of wheat in Great Britain this
season is 50,000,000 bushels against
63,000,000 last year. The wheat area
of British India is reduced from 23,
000,000 acres to 18,000,000, and the
wheat yield from 234,000,000 bushels
to 202,000,000 bushels.
The United States, which has re
duced its area sown in oats by 2,000,
000 aores, that for corn by 1.000,000
acres, while that in other grain re
mains unchanged, will nevertheless dis
pose of . 534,000,000 bushels of wheat,
against 434,000,000 bushels last year.

A FREE EXPOSITION.
M anufacturers Fair to Be Held in Port
' land September 22 to October 2.
The exposition to be held at Port
land this fall will-be along new lines,
differing entirely from any fair ever
held in that city. This year the man
ufacturers' of Oregon will show the
people what is made in the state, and
with that end in view the exhibits will
consist wholly of manufactured goods
made in Oregon. Another newj feature
this year will pe that no admission will
be charged. From all sides we hear
the report that the fair will be the most
interesting and instructive exhibition
ever held in the state. One wing of the
large exposition building will be de
voted exclusively to live exhibits, and a
great many articles will be made right
there in tlie building.
The fair is bound to be a grand suc
cess, as already tlie entire spaoe of the
two main floors is taken up by exhib
itors, and we understand the manufac
turers have the money on hand to pay
all expenses.
There is no good reason why Oregon
should not be more of a manufacturing
state than she is, and if the people will
call for goods made at home, instead of
using goods of Eastern manufacture,
home pay-rolls will increase in a won
derful way, making work and happy
homes for all. We sincerely believe the
fair will do more to enthuse the people
than anything else that could be done
in creating a demand for home prod
ucts, and showing the necessity of
patronizing home manufacturers. - The
Manufacturers Association of the North
west, under whose auspices the fair
will be held, deserves great credit for
the work it is doing.
The fnir will be open from Septem
ber 22 to October 2, and all railroads
have made a reduced rate of one and
one-fifth fare for the round trip. .

army in 1869, and completed his uni
versity career in 1879. The dates of
his birth and marriage, January 27th
and February 27th, both make nine if
the figures 2 and 7 are added together.

Stop! Women,
And consider that in addressing Mrs.'
Pinkham you are confiding your private
ilia to a woman a woman whose ex
perience in treating woman's diseases
is greater than that of any living phy
sician, male or female. '
You can talk freely to a woman when
It is revolting to relate your private
troubles to a man; besides, a man does
not understand, simply because he is a
man.
: - MES. PINKHAM'S STANDING
INVITATION. ;
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are re
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to a woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
In return except your good will, end
her . advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very
foolish if she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of assistance; ' ,

Smokeless Furnace. '
A patent has been granted for furnace
doors of such construction - that the
smoke of the furnace is disintegrated
and disseminated over the whole fire
surface, and those elements which are
ot value are consumed and utilized.
The advantages claimed for the inven
tion, says the St. Louis Globe-Demo-srat,
are: Superior efficiency , by secur
ing the abolition of all coal smoke and
other noxious and poisonous products
caused through imperfect combustion;
great saving in fuel, as smaller and
oheaper coal may be used; the method
is cheap and can be easily applied; the
doors can be fitted to any type of fur
nace; the invention requires no altera
tion of furnaces already in use beyond
the removal of the existing doors and
the substitution of the patent furnace
door, whioh change can be effected in
five.minute3 while the boiler is still at
work. It is understood that the inven
tion has already been applied to mer
cantile, naval and marine boilers, as
well as to innumerable furnaoes em
ployed in various metal, pottery, brick
and other works.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED '
by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion ot the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, arid that is bv constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is cauRed by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian tube. When this tube gets inflam
ed you have a rumbling "sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition of
the muoous surfaoes.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir

Women have a weakness that can be cured
by Dr. Sanden's Electric Belt. There are too
many weak, broken-down mothers, wives
and sisters wrecked in constitution through
the sluggish, weak action of the organs.
For this weakness the usual tonics nave
proved of only temporary assistance, and
nothing but new vitality can restore the
weakened functions to their normal health.
DR. A. T. SANDEN Dear Sir: I have worn
your belt regularly, and it has done me a great
deal of good. My bowels have moved mora
regularly, we anil, tirea teellng nas disap
peared, and my general health has improved.
My back has not troubled me any since wear
ing the belt, my kidneys are a great deal better,
and my nerves have also greatly improved. I
cannot say enough for vour wonderful belt.
MRS. J. M. GRIFFIN.
, Bourne, Baker County, Or.
The warming, toning power from Dr. San
den's Electric Belt adds new life to women. It x
daily increases the healthy vital force. It cures
weak women as it cures weak men, by renew
ing the wasted strength. Get the little book
that tells about it, free. Or call and consult
the regular physician of 30 years' experience,
who is in charge.
